I love the blennie pictures!!!!! Wish I could tell you something to help the gorg survive. It is not looking too happy anymore. Those rhodactis are getting big big!!!!!!
Nope the gorg is making a comeback!!!!! This morning when I woke up, pretty much all the polops are opened!!!!
%h. Only one branch has some scattered, but the other branches are covered in the white polops.
Its so hard to get a pic of the blenny, it always hides when someone is near the tank. Its home is in a hole behinde the favia, and he comes out to help clean the favia from algae.

I'm pretty sure mine only have short tenticles at the moment. The picture that looks a little blue(close ups) is of acouple of the heads in my eyes fully open.

LOL thanks for the concerns and comments guys.
The red gorg. was fully open today, so I guess it was just being a coral and hiding for a while.

Thanks! The gorg. is somewhat easy for me. It stoped extending for about 4 days but its back to normal now. A lot of people said they had a short life span in the at home aquarium, so dont know what to tell you haha.

Is there such a thing as red bubble algae?
I have some growing in my refugium. It looks like the branched green bubble algae but its red. Should I be worried of a possible spread, even though its in my refugium?
I think it might be this Botryocladia skottsbergii but its more branched and floating in my cheato, rather than stuck on a rock.

Also what salt do you use? I use IO reef crystals, and I always find a yellow residue at the bottom of the bucket wehn I make SW. What is it, Trace elements?

not inside the undissolved salt. When you dissolve the salt do you see yellow residue?
If not I guess it is the extra added trace elements that the IO claim to have added in the reef crystal formula.
